I made this favor box cake for my daughter's preschool teachers for the end-of-year appreciation gift.
Inside each of the 10 cake slices are cake balls wrapped in small cello bags. I learned everything I know about making cake balls and pops from Bakerella! http://bakerella.blogspot.com/
All the cutting is done with the Cricut:
Tags, Bags, Boxes & More cartridge- cake favor box cut at size 9 1/2 inches on 12x12 Whisper White Cardstock.
Accent Essentials cartridge - individual flowers cut at 2 1/2, 2, and 1 1/2 inches -- large center flower cut at 4, 3 1/2, 3, and 2 1/2 inches out of Parisian Breeze Specialty SU designer series paper spring-summer 2009 catalog.
Storybook cartridge - "Thank you" and scroll accents on the ends of each slice.
Embossing done with the swirl Cuttlebug folder. I created a template for the triangle and rectangle on the end of each cake slice. I hand-cut and embossed the pieces and adhered them to the box with mono-multi glue.
Other accessories: yellow Prima flower centers with Stickles.
Oh my...this is precious...I know that her teachers will appreciate your thoughtfulness and kindness, along with all your hardwork...and your delightful cake balls are delish...beautiful cake box for those scrumptious cake balls.
